Abstract

See full text

A diagnostic tool for detection of dental pathology is provided that functions as a self-contained, handheld unit. The tool includes a light probe and a housing within which are located an optical source, an optical detector, an analysis processor and a power source. The components within the housing are integrated on a support which is removable from the housing. The housing is in multiple pieces which may be connected together during operation, and disconnected to allow removal of the support. This allows for sterilization of the housing and light probe without the electrical components of the device.
